Coin Highlight: 2018 Silver American Eagle

Published on 1/11/2018 by APMEX

APMEX is proud to once again offer the new year’s Silver American Eagle. Since its launch in 1986, the Silver American Eagle has catapulted into the stratosphere by becoming not just the most popular Silver bullion coin in the United States, but the most popular Silver bullion coin in the world.

Design of New 2018 Silver American Eagle Coin

The design of the stunning 2018 American Silver Eagle recalls the memory of some of America’s most revered coin art. The obverse of the 2018 1 oz Silver American Eagle features a rendition of the design by Adolph A. Weinman that originally appeared on the Walking Liberty Half Dollar from 1916 to 1947. This undisputedly iconic design, depicting Liberty striding against the rays of the rising sun, was a favorite of the American people and seemed like a natural choice for the 1 oz Silver American Eagle. The reverse of the coin showcases a heraldic eagle bearing an olive branch in one talon and arrows in the other. The eagle holds in its beak a banner which reads, “E Pluribus Unum.” Mirroring the Great Seal of the United States, the eagle rests below 13 stars symbolizing the original 13 colonies. This artwork is not only beautiful in its crisp detail but deeply symbolic to American citizens.
